JUIIIO The Iunior Band is composed of pupils from the fourth grade to and including the ninth grade. The purpose ot this organization is mainly preparatory so that there will be a Well- trained group ot band members to replace Vacancies in the senior band With a minimum of adjustments. This is an assur- ance that there will not be a slump in the performance quality of our marching and concert band. At the present time, there are twenty to twenty-tive students in the Iunior Band, training under the direction ot Mr. Hard, who will supply this needed quota. Students who are yet in the tourth grade have separate training to prepare for entrance into the Iunior Band. This system provides for a steady source of Senior Band material at any time. At least tour ot this preparatory group will grad- uate to marching and concert band status by Iune. BOYS' QUARTETTE Salo Miller Tom Crawford Charles Rhodebeck Iohn Geyer

They reorganized this tall with nine members and played at several high-school dances during the Winter. The fact that all the members, with the exception of Trainer, Will be here next year, assures us of having good dance music for another year.
